"This Georgetown smokehouse closed during the pandemic, and has now returned with a focus on pork burgers for lunch. These patties are juicy, with a caramelized crust from the flat top and a lightness that beef just doesn’t have. And while you could stack on toppings like house-cured kurobota ham, swiss cheese, and maple bourbon glaze, if you're here for one thing, it's the Plain And Simple, layered with yellow american and sweet special sauce that becomes one with the drippy pork juices. Rounding out the lineup of outstanding burgers are tasty deep-fried sides like cornmeal-crusted green tomatoes with jalapeño scallion buttermilk sauce and battered corn on the cob. This is a lunch worth canceling midday meetings for—or better yet, hosting here." - Aimee Rizzo

Two of us went for lunch. We both got the bacon pig burger. The buns were homemade, buttered, and browned on the flattop. The burger was crisp on the outside and flavoring. Very juicy and had lots of textures from the lettuce, onion, and bacon. Some kind of burger sauce was on it and added flavor to the burger. Besides not looking like beef, it tasted like an amazingly flavored hamburger. The fries were definitely handcut so not super crispy. They were seasoned and partially crispy so we ate them all. The service was friendly and attentive without being pesky. Besides being in a sketchy part of town, the ambiance is part bar - part burger joint. I thought it quaint and cozy. I definitely would go back to try the BBQ.

My first BBQ Pork Burger! Yummo! The Ham Burger was a winner with a slightly sweet glaze. We shared side of fries. Next time, we'll try the sweet potato fries. Love the fact they do their own meats in house. I had a Hard Chata. So my more things to try!

Molly was our server, she was lovely. This was a very unexpected experience. It's a restaurant that really transports you to a different place. It's a gritty, greasy, unapologetic place that you would be more likely to find in West Texas than SoDo. And then the food. It was absolutely spectacular. Pork burgers had a brilliant charred exterior that gave you the caramelized fat flavor but also the texture that burgers scream for. Lots of options for different tastes and the fried green tomatoes seemed like they came straight out of Mississippi kitchen. I thought I was going to hate it, I absolutely adored it.

This is a unique little BBQ joint. Feels very authentic and down to earth. I had 1/4 rack of ribs with the spinach-jalapeño casserole and the baked beans. The beans were more savory than your standard ‘Beans and brown sugar’ you normally find at BBQ joints. I was intrigued by the casserole so I tried it out and was super impressed. I don’t normally like cooked spinach, but I was plenty surprised by the flavor and texture, which was thicker and creamier than expected. I tried the peach cobbler, and although it took awhile to make (10 minutes ish) it was delicious, but order it when you order your main meal so it arrives when you are ready for it. The restaurant is connected to a bar, both owned by the same person. So you can order food and take it over if you want, or just stay in the family-friendly resturaunt.

Place is proper, excellent burgers and very kind and responsive service. I would recommend this to anyone for a quick lunch and a beer if your lucky. Cheers

Amazing pork burgers. We had the Deluxe and Ham burgers and they were great. Shocked that no one has ever done pork burgers before. Try the fried corn on the cob. Again, something we have never seen before and it should be a "thing,"

Great barbecue. They offer a variety of meats, including ribs, pork and brisket. Their cook style is defnitely southern (as compared to Texas style), and is excellent. Try the greens, they are really well prepared. The place is casual, and the staff is friendly.

Gotta give these guys credit, when you walk in you are met with a smile and a consuming waft of bbq goodness. If you're lucky/smart enough to be early and they aren't sold out of everything, you will be treated to some deliciously tasty eats. Their brisket is delicious, their Ribs are tender and flavorful, and the experience is just a sensory overload. Highly recommend.
